Log Files
As with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files includes your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider), the browser you used to visit our web Site, the time you visited our Site, and which pages you visited throughout our Site.
Cookies and Web Beacons
We use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences, when you visit our Site. (Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your browser (if you allow this) which enable the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser, and to capture and remember certain information). This allows us, among other things, to identify our members so they do not have to re-enter their user ID and password.
You can choose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our Site as well as other sites. This could include the inability to log in to services or programs, such as forums or accounts.
Personal information cannot be collected via cookies and other tracking technology; however, if you previously provided personally identifiable information, cookies may be tied to such information. Aggregate cookie and tracking information may be shared with third parties.
What We Use Your Information For
The information we collect to understand your needs and interests helps us deliver a consistent and personalized experience. For example, we may use your information to:
- create and maintain your account
- prevent and detect fraud or other malicious activity;
- communicate with you about our services and features;
- allow other members to communicate with you;
- provide service and support;
- update you on new services and features;
- analyze service usage statistics, including but not limited to external analytics tools and their built-in toolkit (including sessions, User-ID, etc).
Virtual Data Partners may also use information such as your name and e-mail address to contact you, respond to your inquiries, and send you information and to notify you of special offers and other products or services, including those of our partners, that we believe may be of interest to you or to notify you of important new changes to the Websites. Usage Information helps Virtual Data Partners measure the success of the Websites, its features or pages, and to improve your online experience, as well as to optimize the Services.
Virtual Data Partners does not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to others.
Children’s Privacy
We are in compliance with the requirements of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13 and do not target our Site to children under 13, or knowingly permit children under the age of 13 to become registered members of our Site.
How We Protect Your Information
To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of all information, we use appropriate physical, technical and administrative procedures to safeguard the information we collect. This includes encryption of passwords stored on our servers. Additionally, we only support HTTPS (ciphered) protocols for access to our Site.
Although we try our best to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, please be aware that there are risks inherent in sharing information, and that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot control the actions of other members with whom you share your information. We cannot guarantee that only authorized persons will view your information. We cannot ensure that information you share on our Websites will not become publicly available. We are not responsible for third party circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures on our Websites. You can reduce these risks by using common sense security practices, such as choosing a strong password, using different passwords for different services, and using up-to-date antivirus software.
Disclosure of Your Information to Third Parties
The Websites may contain links to other websites controlled, offered or maintained by third parties. Unless specifically indicated otherwise, Virtual Data Partners is not affiliated with these sites and Virtual Data Partners makes no representation and is not responsible for these sites or the contents contained therein. Your access and use of these sites is at your own risk. Virtual Data Partners is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our Websites, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may disclose your information pursuant to subpoenas, court orders, or other requests (including criminal and civil matters) if we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law. This may include respecting requests from jurisdictions outside of the United States, wherever we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law under the local laws in that jurisdiction, applies to users from that jurisdiction, and is consistent with generally accepted international standards. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to enforce our Site policies, or to protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety.
We may provide third parties with aggregate statistics about our members, traffic patterns, and related information. This data reflects usage patterns gathered during customer visits to our Websites each month, but does not contain behavioral or identifying information about any individual member, unless that member has given us permission to share such information. We may also provide log files and other databases of user information to third parties for analysis, to get a better understanding of traffic throughout our Site.
If the ownership of all or substantially all of our company changes, we may transfer your information to the new owner so the service can continue to operate. In such a case, your information would remain subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy.
Access and Accuracy of Your Information
We strive to keep your personal information accurately recorded. We have implemented technology, management processes, and policies to help maintain data accuracy. We provide our members with reasonable access to personal information that they provided to us and the reasonable ability to review and correct it or ask for its deletion, as applicable. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as requiring a password and user ID, before granting access to your data.
